Reform UK is a party for people who thought the Tories didn't go far enough, and Labour went too far.

Not unexpected by everyone. MMT economists have been loudly predicting this from the get-go. But mainstream media are more comfortable repeating neoliberal bullshit than exploring reality. MMT is trying to tell you something important. Time to listen.

The job of a UK prime minister, is not to help ordinary UK citizens, it is to act as a facilitator for corporatism, to ensure that private interests are satisfied, at any cost. That is real treachery.

@peterstefanovic.bsky.social - if you care about the poor, then take the time to understand how money is created and destroyed - not by wealthy corporations and individuals - but by the govt. The UK issues its own currency. It costs nothing. If we can do it, the govt can afford it.

“A rerun of Tory austerity by making poor people poorer isn't what Labour should be about. Instead, the government should explore raising extra funds from wealthy corporations and individuals”
